Abstract

A scribing tool 10 for use in semiconductor scribing apparatus includes a rotatable semiconductor wafer scribing wheel 30 engageable with the semiconductor wafer 14 to form a scribe line when the tool exerts pressure on the semiconductor wafer and the scribing wheel rotates. Bearings 56 are engageable with the scribing wheel sides to resist sideways deflection during the scribing operation.
